Poker and Golf in Medellin...

Any home poker games in Medellin?

Golfing at Club Deportivo El Rodeo, how much for membership or daily play? Any other details about playing golf there would be great too!

Thanks

Unfortunately I'm not a full time resident... yet, but I'm down for a weekly game during my future visits. Next trip is scheduled for the month of October. What type of game do you have in mind, limit, no limit, Omaha???

Any golfers out there?

Trying to get the details of playing golf there. I know about the membership fees etc. at Club Campestre but I'd much prefer to play at the Club Deportivo El Rodeo. Campestre in Medellin is only nine holes and I do know the Macarena course up near San Antonio is open to the public but it's a bit far to drive, especially for someone without a car. Does anyone know if Club Deportivo el Rodeo is open for public play and if not what are the membership fees etc.? Maybe we can have a golf outing with four of us and then we can either take a large taxi up to Macarena or better yet if someone had a vehicle we could share the espenses etc.

at Escape Artist, doesn't matter to me. we can do 5/10mil limit, or 2/5mil no limit, both hold 'em. I'm not too big on Ohama yet, but if we're playing dealers choice, I can roll with the punches.

I'm down for a limit format. I suck at no limit! I'll be there for the month of October so let's see if we can get a friendly game together. Anybody have good chips or do I need to bring some? So how many do we have?

We're still trying to get that question answered but so far no one has come up with the information. I know what it cost at Macarena up by San Antonio but still trying to get information on the Club Deportivo el Rodeo in Medellin.
